During the 16th Annual Sonoma Film Festival (April 10-14, 2013) - where fine films and wines are observed in unison - a story that encapsulates both novelties in one is something to celebrate. For this reason, French winemaker Guillaume Bodin’s film ‘La Clef des Terroirs’ (2011) should be mentioned as this month it will be released on DVD in France and America. The film held its international premier at the 27th Santa Barbara International Film Festival. Relevant to the situation of California wines and agriculture here in northern California, the film discusses the benefits of ‘biodynamic’ organic farming in the world of wine. It is a form of modern wine producing being used in the global wine industry today to combat technically processed wines, a system of healthy and natural wine production developed by philosopher Rudolf Steiner.

Wine The Green Revolution "Better than speaches, images that give view of vineyards and winemakers full of life, real life! Images of biodynamic cultivation, a hymn to the quest for balance and harmony, the song of the earth."

Released in France in March 2011, “Wine: The Green Revolution”, directed by Guillaume Bodin, has just made its debut in the United States. This may be the beginning of a promising international future for this documentary film, which brings a different perspective to the world of wine.
